Question

Find the area of each of the rectangles in the net and place in diagram

Answer 1

Lets draw a picture of our problem. The measures of each rectangle are:

The area of a rectangle is

`A=\text{base}* height`

Then, from left to right and top to bottom, the area of the rectangles are

`\begin{gathered} A_1=8*5 \\ A_2=16*5 \\ A_3=16*8 \\ A_4=16*5 \\ A_5=8*5 \\ A_6=16*8 \end{gathered}`

then, the answer is

`\begin{gathered} A_1=40in^2 \\ A_2=80in^2 \\ A_3=128in^2 \\ A_4=80in^2 \\ A_5=40in^2 \\ A_6=128in^2 \end{gathered}`
